I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village

Ten days passed in a flash.

At that moment, five carriages arrived at the checkpoint at the three-way intersection. Li Quan, who was checking the other carriages, saw someone sitting on the side of the carriage approaching from behind. His eyes lit up. After notifying the other carriages to pass, he hurried back.

"Zhou Qi, why are you here? Where is Master Zhou?"

"My master is at the Bozhou government office. I'm here today to deliver the betrothal gifts to Xiangjun at his command."

After saying this with a smile, he said proudly in his heart: The master said that the betrothal gift should be sent in a grand manner. I think I have done it well this time.

Li Quan was shocked and said in disbelief, "So soon? The president must not be home right now."

"Nothing, I'll go unload the things first. Go do the routine inspection."

"okay."

At this moment, a woman's voice came from the carriage.

"Zhou Qi, should we get off the carriage?"

"Nothing, ma'am. A woman will come into the carriage to check it out in a moment."

Li Quan came back from inspecting the four carriages, feeling a bit dizzy. My God, Lord Zhou really values ​​the president. The amount of the betrothal gifts and the contents of the box were enough to blind him.

"Zhou Qi, this is Master Zhou."

Li Quan shouted excitedly and gave Zhou Qi a thumbs up.

Zhou Qi smiled complacently, his proud face full of pride.

After a while, several carriages entered the cobblestone road of Lijia Village.

"Ma'am, look, the road is paved very smoothly. There are trees and flowers on both sides of the street, and there are lanterns hanging on the trees. Even if it gets dark, you won't have to worry about not being able to see the road clearly."

The maid lifted a corner of the curtain, looked outside, and chattered.

The woman who was originally sitting there pretending to be asleep opened her eyes, curiously lifted the curtain and looked over. A flash of shock flashed across her eyes: Is this the Lijia Village that Huai'an mentioned?

"What's that? Once you enter the village, you'll know that prosperity isn't just found in the capital city or Bianjing. Besides, all of this was built by our wife."

When the woman heard Zhou Qi's proud tone, she smiled helplessly and shook her head, thinking: Yes, Huai'an is such a good person, how could the woman he likes be bad?

Thinking of this, I felt a little bit of anticipation.

After a while, Zhou Qi and his group arrived at the carriage parking lot in Lijia Village.

"Zhou Qi, you're here?"

"Uncle Li, let's rent four carts."

"What are you renting? No need to rent. I'll register for you and you can just take the number plate and pick it up."

"No, Uncle Li. This is the land that our village committee contracted from the chairman. We paid for it. If you give it to me for free, my family will punish me if they find out."

"Haha, okay, then I won't be polite with you, old man."

Zhou Qi ordered several servants to pull the carts according to the number plates, and then put all the boxes on the carts, which would be pulled away soon.

"Madam, we have to get off the carriage and walk. The village is crowded with tourists and merchants, so Madam doesn't allow carriages to enter, fearing that someone might get hurt."

The woman understood, and she also wanted to get off and see the prosperous village Zhou Qi had mentioned. So she took the hand of the maid and got off the carriage.

Old Man Li stared in amazement at the boxes of things on the cart. He then saw a dignified woman in gorgeous clothes stepping down from the carriage, holding the hand of a maid. He asked in surprise, "Zhou Qi, what is this?"

"This is my master's mistress. She has come from Peinan to propose marriage to the president at my master's request."

"What? Mr. Zhou has proposed marriage to our president. Oh, this is great news, you should go quickly, but the president is definitely not at home right now. They are repairing a canal in the back mountain, so the president must be there."

"Okay, Uncle Li, we'll be leaving first."

……

Zhou Qi led a group of people and walked on the street, smiling and greeting everyone along the way, proudly explaining the reason. In a short while, the whole village, including foreign tourists and businessmen, knew that Lord Zhou had come to propose marriage to the president/county lord.

At the Li family, Mrs. Wang has handed over her chores to her second granddaughter, Li Xing, and usually stays at home when she has nothing to do.

Here, Li Chunhua looked at the long wooden box on the desk, a trace of sadness flashing across her eyes. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, opened the wooden box, and stared at the white dried flowers lying quietly in the box. She couldn't help but laugh bitterly and muttered, "Can't even give away this Suguan Heding (orchid)? Chongguang, you are such a coward."

……

At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard in the courtyard. After a while, the gate opened from the inside.

"This is?"

Mrs. Wang was astonished when she saw the servant carrying boxes of things into the yard.

"Madam, this is the betrothal gift that the young master ordered me to deliver. Also, this is Madam Pei from Peinan Qingzheng Academy, and also the young master's teacher's wife."

Mrs. Wang was stunned at first, then she saw a dignified woman in brocade clothes being supported by a maid. She quickly stepped forward and said with a smile, "Madam Pei, please come in."

"Okay. Auntie, come with me."

As he said this, he walked forward and took Wang Po's arm with a smile.

I had heard Huai'an say that he came to Lijia Village in An County, Bozhou Prefecture, and I thought that even if he was a local lord, he should be from an ordinary family.

But when they came here, she was really shocked by the prosperous scene with a unique charm. If she had not come in a hurry, she really wanted to stay here for a longer time.

As they entered the courtyard, Madam Pei looked at the two-story wooden building and the dense clusters of flowers in the courtyard and said happily, "Auntie, your courtyard is really beautiful."

"It was all thought up by our eldest daughter."

"Zhou Qi, go to the back mountain and call your uncle Chunping and the eldest girl. Then go to the workshop and call your aunt."

"Oh, all right, Madam."

The two had just sat down in the front hall when Mrs. Li walked in against the light, carrying tea. Mrs. Pei glanced at the door and started chatting with Mrs. Wang beside her.

"Aunt, I won't say any polite words. I was entrusted by Huai'an today to come here to propose marriage on his behalf. He rushed to our Peinan a few days ago and asked me to come here to propose marriage on his behalf.

At the time, I was wondering whose daughter this was that could have so captivated our chaste Huai'an Master and made him anxious. But today, I finally understand that if he hadn't been slow to approach such a talented woman, he would have been chaste for the rest of his life.

When Mrs. Wang heard this, she felt very comforted. She knew that Zhou Yuntian valued Li Lan, and she burst into laughter.

"This Yuntian is a good boy. We can rest assured to leave the eldest girl with him. It's hard for you to come all the way here. Come and try this tea. It's a scented tea that the girl made herself. They say it's good for women's beauty and beauty."

"Okay, then I have to try it."

Madam Pei took a sip, her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in amazement: "This taste is indeed special, with a hint of floral fragrance."

"If you like it, take some with you when you leave."

"Okay, then I won't be polite, aunt."

At this time, Zhang came in hurriedly. Seeing the dignified woman chatting with her mother-in-law on the armchair, her eyes paused, then she took a deep breath and walked over with a smile.

"mother."

"Zhang, you're back. This is Yuntian's master's wife, Madam Pei. She came all the way from Peinan to propose marriage today."

When Zhang heard this, she felt very comfortable and comforted, and her face was full of smiles.

"Mrs. Pei, thank you for coming such a long way. It must be tiring."

Pei Fu looked at the well-dressed woman who walked in and was instantly impressed. He stood up and said with a smile, "It's not hard. I watched Huai'an grow up, and you're talking about our Renshan Township Lord. It's nothing for me to make a trip here.

As for me, since you are younger than me, if you don't mind, I will be generous and call me Sister Pei, okay? "

"Oh, okay. Sister Pei."

The three of them drank scented tea and chatted happily.

Not long after, Li Chunping and Li Lan hurried back. Hearing the footsteps, everyone in the hall looked towards the door.

Against the light, Mrs. Pei saw a man followed closely by a tall and slender woman wearing a warm yellow outfit and a high ponytail. The red ribbon in her hair fluttered in the air with her steps.

Only when the two men came up to her did she see the woman's appearance clearly. She was extremely beautiful, especially her big round eyes, which were very bright and lively.

Li Lan walked up to her, bowed respectfully, and saluted deeply.

"Aunt Pei, thank you for your hard work along the way."

Mrs. Pei's eyes lit up, full of admiration. She quickly stood up, helped her up, and said happily, "It's not hard at all. My husband has no idea how worthwhile this trip was."
